BlazeMichigan, an Ypsilanti-based business, is offering the free gift of marijuana to customers who buy used books.

The marijuana-gifting business is not entirely new to the area. On High Road, a Washington, D.C.-based business that recently expanded to Ann Arbor, sells art and includes a free snack and marijuana in the package.

BlazeMichigan co-owners Stephanie Swearengin and Chris Rau began this venture on Wednesday, Jan. 2, and have already received about 100 clients, which includes 12 repeat customers, they said. High demand has been the company’s biggest struggle since launching, causing employees to work all day.

“We’ve almost doubled everyday since we started,” Swearengin said, adding that employees spend about 15 to 16 hours a day on all operations.

The company sells several packages starting at $65 for four books and four marijuana gifts, to $400 for 24 books and 56 marijuana gifts. However, Michigan law allows only up to 2.5 ounces of marijuana for gifting.

Customers can either meet drivers, who text them with a vehicle description when they are two miles away from a public area in Ypsilanti, or have their items delivered anywhere in Michigan for a fee.

“We have almost every category of book,” Swearengin said. “We randomize our bundles. We sell on Amazon too," adding the business' page has 14,000 books to choose from.

These include children’s books, nonfiction, cook books, hardbacks and more that are donated or purchased at libraries. If a customer does not want or like their books, BlazeMichigan will recycle or exchange them. The company mainly advertises on Craiglist, Facebook and Reddit.

The company promise’s same-day delivery, or one to two business days if clients are based further out from Ypsilanti, Swearengin said.
